Parking

Applicants may park in the Visitors/East parking garage. We provide a Parking Voucher for each applicant on the day of the interview. Please do not leave the interview without the voucher as there is otherwise a nominal fee for parking in the Visitor Garage. Use the crosswalk to cross the street, and take the ramped sidewalk down. You will enter the East entrance of Shands Hospital. Continue straight (West) until you reach the Atrium area. Just past the information desk that is on your left, take a right and head straight (North) toward the six set of elevators. Take the elevator to the Ground floor (the Atrium is located on the 1st floor). Exit the elevator and go left and then immediately right and you will see the Department of Radiology posted on the wall. Check in at the front desk. For additional directions, please access the UF Health Shands Hospital map website.
